Northern cattle definitely make more than southern. With the exception of the likes of Brecon, Knighton etc where they get the same type of suckler calves you get in Yorkshire/Cumbria/Borders. I stand and just gape at some of the northern sales when I’ve gone for suckler outfits before the store sale. So much less dairy influence than there is in the midlands though

I often pit 180 tonnes ish for the winter but the most I’ve paid was £45
It’s usually cheaper in August but not by much

They might not be everyone’s cup of tea but may born Welsh cross lambs are starting to shift now.

I started to pit it years ago father did it before me it was cheap feed could get it here for around £30 delivered for a long time but it’s crept up. Local breweries Vaux at Sunderland and Cameron’s at Castle Eden shut now so would get it off John Smiths at Tadcaster after that last 20 years it’s come from up your way apart from the odd load

I like the white Welsh mule, the speckled once are bred to be to fancy and are dear as hell now.
